Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Engagement with the Central Bank of Ireland

1:30 pm

Ms Derville Rowland:

To be clear, we are happy to engage now on that. As of 1 January, the right person to engage with – there is no confusion about this – will be the director of banking or me. The work we have been doing, at which we have been better in recent years, is multidisciplinary; it is not consumer protection on the side. It is data driven, analytical and supervisory and it blends all the skills together. We intend to build on the strength or muscle we have developed and put it into the heart of what we do. I would want the committee to hold us to account on that and expect more effective consumer protection measures in a changing external landscape. We are very happy to engage. There should be no confusion in January. To be super clear, the Deputy can engage with me, the director of banking and, if it is an insurance issue, the director of insurance.
